Parkhurst, Republican candidate for governor, is. leading Bertrand C. Mclntire, Democrat, by. 64,568. ' Thi result is a direct repudiation Wy the state of the Wilson administration's policy on peace and the league of nations. That was the issue din which both parties appealed to the people, almost\p the exclusion of any local questions. •I . .J'- ' ■— "■ >

OPERA HOUSE WAS CROWDED

' ■ * ■■ FQUR/ ADDRESSES MADE AT meeting HELD IN OPERA HOUSE. The New Ellis Opera house was “filled to capacity Monday night to hear the addresses of the Democratic orators. A large number of Democrats from surrounding towns were present The Hon? Fred; Barnett of Hammond was the first speaker of the evening! He is the Democratic candidate for congress from this, the tenth Indiana district. He occupied his time pending the arrival’ of the other speakers from a visit

to St. Joseph College. Upon the arrival of Dr. McCollough and Senator Owen,, Mr. Barnett gave way and Mrs. Ura Gwin, the _ district Democratic woman chairman, introduced Mrs. Hortense Moore of Rockville. Mrs. Moore made .qn- excellent address from the standpoint of women and their ability to participate in the field of politics: She had but little, to say about Democratic principle® and 'policies. She favored the-' League of Nations, but failed to answer a single , point urged against its unAmericanism. McCollough of Indianapolis was then presented by the Hon. E. P. Honan in a somewhat extended introduction. Dr. Collough’s voice was in very bad condition. He made an -appeal to the ex-service men. He told them of the red meat, the white bread and the abundance of sweets they enjoyed oyer on’the battlefields of France, but, he forgot that he was talking to privates and not to persons holdl ing rank as did he in that conflict, and that many, many times the meat, Hie and the sweets were not present at all, let alone being in the appetizing condition which he described. Then the Doctor from Indiana apolis went after the state administration. He censured them for lowering taxes, raising- taxes, for spending , too much, then .too- .little money. He spoke of the .. Republican ring and its awful iniquity. The Doctor feels sure Indiana fa on the verge of wreck and ruin and that unless he and the state -board of health are given the reins of government our doom to sealed. He did not use a single figure from the state’s finance and had he done so he wdbid' And that Governor Goodrich has made a record ; for business economy that will appeal to the fair minded people of the state. s' ? Mr. Honan then introduced United States Senator Owen, of Oklahoma. In doing so he made a wet remark that must have displeased the big majority of the people in. the audience. ' ; Senator Owen was very fair in his address.. He made pne mistake which he . would not have made had he consulted one of the grade pupils in the public schools of Jasper county. He said that Lincoln and Jefferson stood for the same principles of .government. As we understand jit,- Jefferson believed in state rights and deelgating to the central government very limited powers. Lincoln and his party Stood for, and fought a bloody war against state rights and the limitation of the powers of the central government. . The Senator seemed to believe that all of the good Republicaw have passed into the great beyond. That while they were living they were the great constructive statesmen! of the nation. Did he realize that in. his audience there were many persons who had heard these Republicans worse abused than the Indianapolis .Doctor abused Governor « Goodrich? ? The Senator stale a great plea for “A League of Nations. He did not dtocusa the “Wilson’’League of Nations. He admitted that Senator Lodge was pre-eminently qualified to have sat at the peace tame in Versailles. He admitted wX Wilson made a great blunder when he urged that only Democrats be elected to congress in 1918. J
